The cell was12 inches high, 2 inches thick, o inches wide, and weighed iV2lbs., giving 120 watt-hours, or 40 lbs. per cell was also shown in its detail parts, and the steel platesexcited much comment and surprise, being in sharp contrastto the familiar ones of lead. Last June note was made of the formation of the EdisonStorage Battery Company, with a capital of $1,000,000, then reference has been made to the establishment of afactory at Glen Ridge. N. J., for the production of the bat-tery. At this present moment, the Glen Ridge factory is sofar advanced that the manufacture of batteries will begin withthe new year, and deliveries should come early in the spring. When interviewed on the subject last week, Mr. Edison ex-pressed himself with the
